Patch Notes

UPDATE 2.02 New Flashy Power-Up Indicator & Tweaks and Oiled Squeaks

Hey people..

Main addition in this small patch is I added a new flashy multi-colored power-up indicator to make it much more obvious when power-ups spawn on the screen.



You'll now see how many total rocks that remain on the screen in really small print under your score. I'll probably either remove this in the near future or give players a toggle button to toggle it on and off like the FPS indicator on the opposite side of the screen. Let me know if you like it or just want it gone, heh.

I've also added a quick check in the code to make sure a player isn't just hording powerups such as spi-rolls and dynamite easy with one or two small rocks left at the end of a wave. The game will now seriously decrease your chances of any power-ups spawning when you only have a few rocks on the screen. Having more than 15 rocks on the screen ensures you have the best chance of getting power-up spawns. The less rocks there are, the lower the chances of power-ups spawning as of this update.

Another change in this update is that you will no longer advance to the end boss battle if there is a VDS alive. You'll need to either kill him or die trying to advance! Remember to keep some dynamite and spiroll attacks for this situation because taking a VDS out with just your firepower alone might be very difficult!

There's a few other minor tweaks and fixes in this patch but othing too major, just timing of the level ending for smoother transitions to the boss screen, stuff like that.

Until my next update, Enjoy that good ol' Rock N Roll!
